Paranoid Possession, Lu Ye's Little Teaser is a Bit Sweet

On the day Lu Zheng met Qiao Zhen, his mind was filled with wild and unrestrained thoughts.

She was the untouchable dream from his youth.

She is also the existence he wants to possess n...

Chapter 162 Emerging from the Water

"Alright." Qiao Zhen noticed something was amiss and frowned as she asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to get them to resign?"

Hearing this, the head nurse seemed to realize that she had done something wrong, and wiped the sweat from her forehead, saying, "No, I just think that she should take responsibility for what she did wrong."

"Everyone says they did nothing wrong. As the head nurse, shouldn't you first find out the truth of the matter?"

Hearing Qiao Zhen's reprimand, the head nurse nodded repeatedly in agreement, not daring to speak in rebuttal: "Yes, yes, Miss Qiao is right to reprimand me."

"You don't need to act this game with me. It's more important to get to the bottom of things now."

With Qiao Zhen pressing her so hard, the head nurse couldn't just go through the motions, so she nodded and agreed: "Understood, Miss Qiao, I'll go right away."

Watching the head nurse's departing figure, the nurse felt as if she had regained her freedom. She smiled at Qiao Zhen and said, "Thank you, Miss Qiao. If it weren't for you, I might have resigned."

"It's nothing, I just saw injustice and stepped in to help."

Looking into the nurse's stubborn eyes, Qiao Zhen chuckled: "But it's still thanks to you. If you hadn't argued so strongly just now, the head nurse wouldn't have lost."

The nurse scratched her head sheepishly and said, "Miss Qiao, you can just call me Xiaoqing. Since you helped me, you're my friend now. If you encounter any difficulties, I'll do my best to help you."

"It's nothing, it was just a small favor for me."

However, Qiao Zhen was in a good mood, after all, making a friend is better than making an enemy.

Recalling what had just happened, Qiao Zhen felt that this was definitely not a coincidence; someone must have deliberately switched the medicine.

The head nurse was in charge of this matter, so Qiao Zhen didn't need to think about it now.

However, considering that Tang Yue was the one who poisoned her, the person who could have switched the medicine bottles is probably close enough.

Qiao Zhen didn't want to resolve this matter immediately; she wanted to continue waiting and see what flaws Tang Yue would reveal.

After saying goodbye to Xiaoqing, Qiao Zhen lay alone on the hospital bed, reflecting on the incident.

The next day, the head nurse indeed told her the truth.

Yesterday, after Xiaoqing picked up her medicine, she went to the restroom. It was during this time that the medicine was switched in a blind spot of the surveillance cameras.

Upon hearing this news, Qiao Zhen was not surprised, but instead asked the head nurse to broadcast the message.

Under pressure from Qiao Zhen, the hospital had no choice but to announce the matter, which indeed caused a huge uproar.

Upon hearing this news, many patients contacted the hospital, expressing concern that their medication might be incorrect.

The hospital was overwhelmed with this issue, but had no good solutions.

Xiaoqing didn't understand Qiao Zhen's motives either, and could only ask in confusion, "Sister Chen, why did you release this news? You've offended the hospital, and now you're still recovering in the hospital. Aren't you afraid...?"

"Because my goal is not to offend the hospital."

Qiao Zhen said calmly, but her eyes looked elsewhere.

"I want to bring the person hiding in the shadows to the surface."

After listening, Xiaoqing wanted to ask something more, but the door to the ward was pushed open.

"Are you alright?" Lu Zheng asked with concern, carefully checking Qiao Zhen from head to toe.

Qiao Zhen was very indifferent to his attitude, and simply shook her head slightly: "It's nothing, everything is fine now."

Lu Zheng frowned as he looked at Qiao Zhen's indifferent attitude. Although the current estrangement was painful for him, he didn't have any good solutions.

"Does it really have to be this way?"

After struggling for a long time, Lu Zheng could only manage to utter this one sentence.

Hearing this, Qiao Zhen raised her head in confusion and asked, "Otherwise what? What happened to me?"

Lu Zheng didn't answer his question, but instead walked to the table next to him and peeled an orange for him.

"Take good care of yourself, and you'll be discharged from the hospital soon."

"Speaking of which, I almost forgot. Could you please extend my hospital stay for a few days? I have something to take care of."

Lu Zheng glanced at Qiao Zhen. Although he didn't know what she was going to do, he nodded in agreement.

"Then be careful here, and don't let something like yesterday happen again."

Qiao Zhen simply nodded and watched Lu Zheng's departing figure disappear into the distance.

Xiao Qing sat to the side, not daring to interrupt. Only after Lu Zheng left did he look at Qiao Zhen mysteriously.

"Sister Qiaozhen, I'm not kidding, but is this your husband? He's so handsome!"

Seeing Xiaoqing's infatuated expression, Qiao Zhen simply smiled faintly: "I guess so."

Xiaoqing didn't understand what Qiao Zhen was trying to say, but she just gushed to herself, "Sister Qiao Zhen, you're so lucky! Not only do you have such a good husband, but he's also so rich. You're a true winner in life!"

“This is not the end of life.” Qiao Zhen’s expression was unusually serious. “For us, being able to earn our own money and become excellent is what makes us winners in life. As for our partners being excellent, that’s their business and has nothing to do with us.”

Hearing this, Xiaoqing benefited greatly, but still nodded in bewilderment.

Time in the hospital was boring, but fortunately Xiaoqing was with me, so it passed relatively quickly.

However, some people soon couldn't stay still and surfaced as Qiao Zhen had predicted.

One morning, while Qiao Zhen was strolling around the hospital, she overheard two nurses whispering to each other.

"Have you heard? It seems like the hospital recently changed its director and other staff."

Qiao Zhen raised an eyebrow, slowly stopped walking, and sat down not far from them to listen carefully.

"What's going on?"

The other nurse, seemingly unaware of the situation, asked with a puzzled look.

"I bet you didn't know." The nurse smiled smugly and then said, "Our hospital recently received investment from a mysterious force, so the hospital has changed hands without us even realizing it."

"Really?" The nurse looked incredulous. "So many things have happened at the hospital lately, and someone else wants to invest? What are they thinking? Are they just rich and stupid?!"

"Who knows?" The two nurses were sighing, and Qiao Zhen, who was eavesdropping behind them, had a complicated expression.

Qiao Zhen keenly observed that this change of ownership was not a simple investment, but very likely the work of Tang Yue.

Thinking of this, Qiao Zhen sneered twice: "In the end, she couldn't help herself."

Back in her room, Qiao Zhen discovered that her hospital bed had been switched.

Before lying down, Qiao Zhenzai carefully examined the sheets and, sure enough, found two needles on the pillow.

Qiao Zhen swept them away. At this moment, Xiao Qing pushed open the door and entered. She was a little puzzled to see that Qiao Zhen was not lying on the hospital bed.

"Sister Qiaozhen, why aren't you lying in bed?"

Qiao Zhen shook her head: "I'm worried there might be something wrong with this bed."

"What could be wrong? Sister Qiaozhen, you should lie down and get some rest."

Xiaoqing quickly helped her to the bedside and gestured for her to sit down.

Qiao Zhen smiled and agreed. Just as she was about to lie down on the hospital bed, she suddenly grabbed Xiao Qing and put her on the bed.

Xiaoqing was startled and screamed, "Ah!"

"What's wrong?" Qiao Zhen glanced at her, a cold smile playing on her lips.
